Paint & Finishes

Mildew Resistant

"Paint formulated with mildewcides that inhibit fungal growth on the cured film. Essential for north-facing walls, humid climates, and shaded exteriors."

American English entry — uses US spelling (color, gray, favorite, neighborhood) and US units (sq ft, gallons, ZIP code). Optimized for homeowners and painting contractors across the United States.

Color definition in detail

Active ingredients include zinc pyrithione (ZPT) and OIT. Mildewcides leach out over 5 to 8 years, so dark-shaded elevations should be washed with a 30% TSP or bleach solution before repainting.
